There is no set formula but we know the wine we’re trying to create and use the barrels as much as needed to get it

The length of time in Van Winkle barrels varies depending on many variables: how many uses they’ve had

this tastes good

Blend: Syrah and Mourvedre

and the last bottle is the “homemaker”

Southern Belle 2017 1.5 L Magnum James Jean There is no set formulaMedium deep opaque purple color with dark red rim. Initial aromas redolent of blackberry and blueberry with underlying hints of red fruits give way to pleasing complex elements of vanilla and toffee. Soft, big, yet elegant mouth feel, rich, full body, density, superb balance and grip, lead to long, long finish, carrying intense ripe fruit and complex flavors. Soft, supple, dramatic, sexy wine with a compelling yummy factor that screams drink me.
